Phonology

Modern Nurian has a typologically unusual distinction between dental and alveolar stops and between many types of fricatives:

  • t d = alveolar stops
  • th dh = alveolar spirants (slit fricatives)
  • þ đ = (unaspirated) dental stops
  • þh đh = dental spirants
  • s z = dental/alveolar sibilants
  • ṡ ż = postalvelar sibilants

Initial td- for the name Tdap

Vowels: <a e i o u æ ie ea eo> all with short and long counterparts

Consonants: <p þ t ċ ķ k b đ d ġ ģ g m n ņ ng f þh th h s ṡ x v z ż għ ħ l ļ r> /p t(dental) t tS c k b d(dental) d dZ J g m n ñ ŋ f θ θ(ret) s S x v z ð ʕ ħ h l λ r/
